Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

so hard...

She was talking about the arm that held her tightly.

Zhao Yeqing's ears were a little hot and itchy. He struggled slightly but didn't move away. His arms seemed to be made of metal and were stiff.

Xin knew that he was doing it on purpose, so she hit him in the chest with her elbow angrily: "Don't make trouble, are you still not tired after so many days?" After that, she poured a glass of grape juice and handed it to him, "Go and drink yours. "

The glass contained a drink, and on the wall were water droplets condensed from the cold drink when it was heated. The glass was stuffed into his arms and directly touched his skin, which made him shiver at the coldness.

Zhao Yeqing took advantage of his slight pause to get out of his arms and slipped outside to pick vegetables.

After several days of sleeping outside, Mu Xi drank a glass of iced drink without even mentioning it. He went upstairs to get on the bed and fell asleep. Except for him, even the two dogs were so tired that they had to raise their heads if there was any trouble outside. Be alert.

The small brick building was quiet. Two dogs were sleeping on the first floor, and Mu Xi was also asleep on the second floor.

It was noon in the yard, and the sun was shining in the front yard. Zhao Yeqing dried the threshed corn kernels that he had collected, and then ground them into cornmeal when he had time to return from the slope.

When the scorching sun turned westward at noon, Zhao Yeqing went from the house to the vegetable field to remove weeds and insects.

When she was growing in the basement, there were not many pests. Some bugs did not require pesticides. Mu Xi would crush them to death when she saw them. Now that there are more things to grow, there are also many small bugs, and they covet her fresh and tender seeds every day. Vegetable seedlings.

The tomato seedlings, pepper seedlings and other fruit and vegetable seedlings that were transplanted some time ago were sprayed with tobacco leaf water after aphids appeared. I don’t know if it was because the young seedlings couldn’t stand the tobacco water and it was too irritating, or if it was the proportion she prepared this time. Not quite right, too strong.

Within a few days, the leaves of two tomato seedlings began to burn, as if they had been burned. Zhao Yeqing knew at a glance that the seedlings were due to water-burned tobacco.

If aphids appeared later, I didn't dare to spray them. I had to rinse them off or remove them manually.

I replanted some garlic at the intervals between the young seedlings and waited until they grew up to have any effect.

Zhao Yeqing saw that the sun was not strong anymore, so he went to the vegetable field to see the growth of garlic. When he saw that the green garlic leaves had grown to the first true leaves next to the tomatoes, there were no aphids under the tomato leaves.

While the weather is good, the tomato leaves should also be cleaned. The peppers, eggplants, etc. should also be cleaned. The larger and yellow ones below should be cleaned. The divided leaves between the leaf axils should also be pinched off. Wait until next time. The flowers that grow out of the stubble can be left to be pollinated and bear fruit.

The nutrition must be left to the fruit.

There was no way he could make up for the lack of sleep. Mu Xi finally woke up in the evening. The dark circles under his eyes were too heavy, heavier than before going to bed. They were green and black, and he looked in the brick wall space with poor lighting. Very scary.

When Zhao Yeqing came back from outside, Mu Xi happened to come out of the bathroom after washing up. After the lights in the bathroom were turned off, only a little light came in from the window. The light behind him was almost completely blocked by Mu Xi. The backlight looked at his face. Inexplicably, it feels like a suspense movie.

Zhao Yeqing was startled. Sometimes she would not scream when she was frightened. It was as if someone had strangled her throat and she couldn't make a sound. She just felt her heart skip a beat.

"You scared me to death!"

After she saw that it was Mu Xi, Zhao Yeqing was so angry that she slapped him on the arm. She regretted it after the slap. It was like hitting a stone, and the slap hurt her.

Mu Xi was a little innocent, his mind was still a little confused, and he regretted that he had slept for too long, and he was not as awake as when he was not sleeping.

Seeing Zhao Yeqing rubbing his palms, he grabbed her hand in a funny way and rubbed it gently in his palm.

"It's my fault too."

There was no one else here, so Zhao Yeqing couldn't blame herself. The frightened lingering lingering feeling had not dissipated yet. She confidently asked Mu Xi to massage her palms. When he saw that he was pressing his palms upwards, Zhao Yeqing hurriedly slapped her palms away. return.

"I'm going to cook first."

After dinner, the two of them prepared things for going down the slope tomorrow. They also had to prepare the feed that they expected to be away from home for three days. They did not bring rhubarb this time. If they could not come back, it could still bring the cattle and sheep. Go outside and eat grass.

If you only take Xiao Hei out, the rations you need to prepare can be reduced accordingly.

When he returned to the slope again, Zhao Yeqing looked at the nearly forty-five-degree slope in front of him, feeling a little frightened.

At the bottom of the slope are tall mounds of extruded soil, and some large trees that were crushed. The trunks of the trees have long since rotted, but they are still lying across the bottom of the slope.

I'm sure you won't ride the bike on the first trip. Someone needs to go down first to check the situation.

The length of the slope was only over a hundred meters. Zhao Yeqing went down first to see the situation, and Mu Xi tied a safety rope around her just in case.

Zhao Yeqing wore a pair of the most non-slip shoes and slowly walked down to the bottom of the slope in just two minutes. He held a gun in his hand, fearing that he would encounter some animal as soon as he reached the bottom.

But before she actually reached the bottom of the slope, Xiao Hei had already reached the bottom first, standing on the rotten dead trees and wagging his tail at her.

The first thing Zhao Yeqing felt when he went down there was silence, almost without the sound of insects.

Like the gas station next to it, there was originally a forest under the cliff here. After the cliff broke, the mountain wall crushed the forest and slid down. The forest was destroyed, and the cement road in front was also destroyed.

This road is the same as the road before the gas station. It is separated by a crack in the ground. It is also a road between two mountains. The difference is that there is a trail extending upwards.

This path was paved with gravel. It was not overgrown with weeds like the previous paths. Only a few grasses came out here and there. It was estimated that the underground soil layer was mostly made of stones.

The plants here were crushed to death by the cliff during the landslide, and now there are only some shrubs and weeds and some small trees that are no thicker than a wrist.

Xiao Hei opened the road in front, and after crossing the weeds that were taller than a person, he stood at the intersection of the gravel path going up the mountain.

The distance was so close that Zhao Yeqing didn't even need a walkie-talkie. He turned around and gave an 'ok' gesture to Mu Xi.

After Mu Xi went down to the bottom of the slope, the two began to clear the road here so that the little electric donkey could ride down.

In Zhao Yeqing's mind, he had heard several years ago that a road had been opened here to the minority villages, but he didn't know why there was only a gravel path now.

However, it seems that this trail can also be ridden on a bicycle. The slope is not too high, but it may be a bit difficult for two people to ride on the car. I don’t know if the horsepower is enough.
